Moderna & The Global mRNA Supply Chain: Regulatory Lessons LearnedOne of the most important reminders I took away from Moderna’s experiences ushering its mRNA vaccine onto the global market is that a commercial manufacturing process must also be accompanied by a commercially ready supply chain. Though sufficient physical volumes of each raw material and a redundant supplier network are necessities, physical scale is not the only “CQA” for which we must account when commercializing our supply chain.

Camp4’s Satya Kuchimanchi highlights where he has seen the most growth in the oligo supply chain over the past few years, as well as which industry trends have been driving these shifts.
Learn more about CustomBiotech's mRNA raw materials pipeline and strict quality criteria that are designed to support the success of our customers’ manufacturing scale-up and regulatory drug approval.
In this Bioprocess Online Live panel, we discuss two experts' perspectives on the current state of the mRNA supply chain for critical raw materials and manufacturing supplies and where pain points still exist.
There remain a lot of gaps in our understanding of plasmid quality, particularly for high-quality mRNA production (as opposed to viral vector production). In this segment of a recent Advancing RNA Live panel, speakers Adi Nair, Tyler Goodwin, and April Sena highlight their biggest questions around plasmid DNA quality, as well as the pros and cons of some of the analytical methods upon which we’re relying most heavily today to assess plasmid quality.
